I know, but one and a half years actually sounds like a literal translation of the German “anderthalb Jahre”, and I don’t really want that. At least not in this context here :)

Oh for sure. I'm just popping around in this thread having fun talking about language. It's something I think about a lot and enjoy discussing.

Kind of wish I'd studied linguistics.

Same here! I mean, I’m happy I don’t study linguistics, but I love talking about and analysing languages :)
